39 different clubs filled the survey with the majority being members of the Dodgeball club, following members of Women’s Rugby, Ultimate Frisbee and Ice Skating. 66 male participants and 102 female ones, 3 people preferred not to say and 1 identified as transgender, everyone had their say and determined the results that settle the sex debates around campus.
It has been established that athletes get a lot of sex, and to be honest, why wouldn’t they? Everyone would love to have an athlete in their bed, endurance, physical abilities and hidden skills that cannot go unnoticed. When athletes were asked if they think their club has a reputation of having a lot of sex the results were pretty divided between yes and no, with 51.2% answering No and 48.8% answering Yes.
Rumour has it that the rugby lads are the luckiest guys on campus, not only people find them the most attractive athletes but 83 people collectively agreed that the rumour stands stronger than ever and the club that gets the most sex is Rugby (Union and League). Who doesn’t love a rugby lad?, with a mullet and a moustache, in tiny shorts walking around Jesmond even when it’s snowing, match made in heaven. The football players didn’t do too bad as other athletes think that both men and women are pretty sexy when playing football. With decent numbers, in second place, 12 votes share Football, Dodgeball and Cheerleading, in having the most sex, not the best but at least not the worst. We get it, rugby athletes are set for life, with such reputation, there is no need to put effort when flirting.
I’m sure athletes didn’t mean to be harsh but it is now confirmed that the club that students think has the least sex is Ultimate Frisbee, breaking the scale and getting 29 votes, followed by Archery with 17 votes and Badminton having 15 votes. Members of Archery club refused to comment and to be honest, I wouldn’t agree to comment either if I was them. Further down the survey students had to get a little personal, when asked if they slept with another member of their sports club 59.3% said No, 38.4% said Yes and 2.3% didn’t want to answer. But when students were asked if they slept with someone from a different sport club 40 people secretly admitted that they have indeed slept with a rugby athlete, the votes were split between men and women. Quite a few people have slept with someone that’s part of the football club and further down the rankings you can find Hockey, Rowing and Water Polo.
But who is relationship material? Take your pick, Rugby or Football? The ultimate rivalry is finally settled, it might be tight but football people appear to be preferred when it comes to settling down, they take the win with 84 votes beating Rugby that got 81. This inside guide suggests that you should grab yourself a football girl, or boy when you feel like settling down.
This or that.. If you had the chance to have sex in a sports facility which one would you choose? Well our students appear to prefer Cochrane Park with 127 people choosing the busy and popular facility and 23 choosing Longbenton which apparently needs to up its game. With such answers we had no option but to get a little dirty, and ask the naughtiest question possible, it might have never crossed your mind but it appears that 15 people had sex in the university’s sports facilities, but thankfully 157 didn’t.
So to shag? To marry? Or to kill? Students were given three options. Golf, frisbee and lacrosse. If they had the chance most people would get in bed with lacrosse athletes, a few times lacrosse had to die, with someone quoting, “kill lacrosse, you know why”. We couldn’t figure why so It will remain a mystery. However when it came to marry and kill preferences floated all over the place, some people would marry golf as “ I want the money” tend to be a popular answer and similarly 80 people would also marry lacrosse “for daddy’s money”, reasonable enough. Frisbee was a hard one as it divided people, it was killed 66 times, and shagged 48 but very rarely was married.
